F-class thief? Sorry, I can steal anything.

Chapter 107 You're... planning to bomb the city center?

Inside the Skyview Cloud Court villa.

Wang Jianguo's voice just now was so calm, as if he were stating an undeniable fact.

"You're currently at the villa in Tianjing Yunting, right?"

In a word.

It hit Chen Yifan's head, making it buzz.

What the heck is this old man?

How did he know?!

His proud and flawless "escape plan" was a testament to his abilities.

His own supposedly perfect theory of "blind spots under the lamp".

In front of this old fox, it's like children playing house?

Wang Jianguo's emotionless voice echoed repeatedly in my ears.

"Kid, don't underestimate everyone on the chessboard."

"Your performance was brilliant, but the waters run deeper than you think."

Chen Yifan's throat went dry instantly.

He looked around.

The "fortress" that he had personally reinforced now appeared to him as a completely transparent glass box.

Fragile.

And there are no secrets.

Did Mu Wanqing betray herself?

impossible.

The binding force of the Abyss Pact is far more absolute than money or morality. That woman was greedy, but even more afraid of being tainted by any stain in the future.

Wang Fugui? Lin Xiaoyu?

They didn't even know they were back.

Is it surveillance? A tracker?

Chen Yifan's gaze swept over himself, then over every corner of the room.

"Secret investigation!"

"Secret investigation!"

"Secret investigation!"

He activated his innate skills one after another, targeting everything in the villa.

No.

There was nothing there.

He was 100% certain that there were absolutely no surveillance devices here that he was unaware of.

How...how did he know?

A chilling thought uncontrollably surfaced in his mind.

strength.

It's an absolute, overwhelming gap in strength.

When a person's level reaches an unbelievable height, all schemes and concealment become meaningless.

This seemingly ordinary veteran police officer, whose official rating is only D...

What kind of monster is it?

and also……

Water depth?

Could it be that, besides the various accusations, the authorities have other motives?

"The commendation ceremony will be held at 9:00 AM the day after tomorrow at the city center square."

You must be there.

Wang Jianguo's words echoed in his mind once again.

Chen Yifan couldn't understand it.

Since everything is under the other party's control, why force him to go to that award ceremony that is obviously a trap?

What's the point?

A grand ceremony...

For whom is it prepared?

A hundred aspects?

Or something else?

Are they so sure that the plan will go wrong if they don't act as the "bait"?

Chen Yifan felt like his head was about to explode.

but……

To go or not to go?

Going there would be like voluntarily jumping into a gladiatorial arena surrounded by wolves, where life and death are uncertain.

Not going?

Chen Yifan tugged at the corners of his mouth, a bitter smile appearing on his face.

Does he still have a choice?

The moment Wang Jianguo revealed his hiding place, he had already lost all options.

The consequences of refusing will be far worse than attending that "ceremony".

"Oh shit……"

Chen Yifan cursed under his breath and sank heavily into the sofa.

A cold, powerless feeling spread from my spine to every part of my body.

For the first time, he realized that his advantage of having lived two lives, which he was so proud of, was utterly laughable in the face of a truly colossal being.

However, this feeling lasted for less than a minute.

The shock and confusion in Chen Yifan's eyes faded, replaced by a sharp, needle-like glint.

strength!

All of this stems from the disparity in strength.

If his level is high enough and he has enough trump cards, he can shatter any conspiracy or scheme with a single punch!

At this moment, his desire for power reached a whole new peak.

Fear won't solve the problem.

Retreat will only hasten your demise.

Since someone has already pointed a gun at your head and is forcing you to move forward, the only thing you can do is put on several layers of bulletproof vests before stepping into the slaughterhouse!

Chen Yifan closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, only absolute calmness remained in them.

At the same time, he sensed something was wrong.

If Wang Jianguo truly knew him inside and out, there would be no need for him to play along.

He could simply send someone to "invite" him back, so he could continue being bait in that cage.

But he didn't.

He went along with his own words and praised the plan as "brilliant".

This shows that although Wang Jianguo saw through his little tricks, he did not intend to stop him.

He even tacitly allowed himself to muddy the waters.

Why?

Chen Yifan's mind raced.

Wang Jianguo was being monitored; he was also a pawn.

By pulling the authorities into the mess with his actions, he essentially turned the tide of the game.

For Wang Jianguo, who is also caught up in the situation and doesn't want to be manipulated, perhaps this is a good thing?

Thinking of this, Chen Yifan felt a little more at ease.

At least for now, it seems that Wang Jianguo, this unfathomable old fox, is not an enemy.

They might even become... temporary allies.

"Commendation meeting...ceremony..."

As Chen Yifan pondered Wang Jianguo's last words, a chill crept up his spine once more.

That place is absolutely a place of extreme danger and peril.

But he had no choice.

Wang Jianguo's statement, "You must be there," was an order.

If you don't go, the security bureau's special forces will break down the door in the next second.

"Damn it, a bunch of old foxes."

Chen Yifan cursed under his breath, and the irritation in his heart dissipated a little.

Memories from a previous life are far less useful than one might imagine when facing an adversary of national caliber.

This should serve as a wake-up call.

Since there's no way to avoid it, we'll just have to bite the bullet and face it.

He sat back in the monitoring room, his gaze sweeping over the screens.

We must reassess our situation and the cards we're dealt.

Wang Jianguo's line is unfathomable and cannot be relied upon for the time being.

As for Mu Wanqing, the news has already been released, and in the short term, the number of people who want to kill him and seize his treasure will decrease.

However, the wolves attracted by the "legacy" are also a huge threat.

The commendation ceremony was a trap set for him.

He must arm himself to the teeth before that happens.

He opened his phone and tapped on the [Merit Shop].

In the upper right corner, the less than 5000 merit points seemed rather glaring.

A drop in the ocean.

He glanced at his bank card balance again.

More than 80 million yuan in cash.

And a sparkly ring.

This money must be fully converted into real combat power before the commendation ceremony.

Chen Yifan dialed Mu Wanqing's number.

"What now?!"

As soon as the call connected, Mu Wanqing's voice, filled with suppressed anger, came through.

"Here's some money for you, want it or not?" Chen Yifan was too lazy to waste words.

"……explain."

"I want to buy some things. Here's a list. Name your price."

He sent over the shopping list that he had prepared in advance.

The contents of the list can be described in one word.

rough.

[Grade C - Explosive Rune] *50

[Grade C - Shining Rune] *50

[Rank B - Substitute Scarecrow] *3

【Grade A - Absolute Defense Scroll (Fake)】*1

……

On the other end of the phone, Mu Wanqing looked at the list and fell silent.

They are all disposable consumables.

Moreover, they were all used for escaping and creating chaos.

This is hardly an awards ceremony.

This is clearly a preparation for a terrorist attack!

After a long silence, she spoke again, her voice filled with a complex mix of disbelief and emotion:

After a long silence, she finally spoke, her voice becoming somewhat complicated:

"Are you... planning to blow up the city center?"
